Uses up to 60% less energy than a traditional convection radiator & much more controllable
Infrared is a natural occurring form of radiant heat and doesn't circulate dust aggravating allergies
Infraredย heats objects directly without heating the air between them.
So, when used in your house, that means walls, ceilings, floors, and you. You will feel the warmth within seconds, rather than the traditional 30 mins to an hour for the central heating to start to warm your room.
Once these objects are warm, they will retain the heat for a period of time - with the panels only needing toย maintainย the temperature at this level.
Traditional 'convection' heating (radiators, storage heaters and fan heaters) work by warming up the air in a room. This warm air isย dissipated much more readilyย ("who left the door open!!") and of course, there is much more to heat by this method. Hot air rises too - if only we lived on the ceiling! The result:
ย -ย Infrared heating panelsย use up to 60% less energyย than convection heating to heat an equivalent space.ย Less energy means lower cost
ย -ย Heat is felt withinย seconds, rather than hours!
Do you ever get theย sneezesย when theย central heatingย goes on in the autumn?ย Infrared heating does not rely on air movement, so itย does not circulate dust and germs. It is, therefore,ย better for allergy sufferers.
Do you have problems with mould and damp?ย Because it heats walls, floors and ceilings (rather than the air) - infrared heat creates aย drier and healthier environment. Thisย helps to eradicate mouldย andย reduce dampness.
Do you want to play your part in helpingย reduce our emissions into the environment?Unlike boilers and fuel burners - infrared heating is powered by electricity only - soย it's use does not produce CO2. If you combine it with a green (renewable sources) electricity tariff, you areย reducing your carbon footprint.
Is home style important to you? FAR infrared panels come in different models such asย pictureย andย glass.ย Theseย look greatย and actuallyย enhance your homeย rather than being a necessary blight on your interior landscape.
Most people would not even know that they are heaters! Even the conventionalย white panelsย are discreet - atย just 22mm thick, they are unobtrusive and can be mounted high up on the wall or on theย ceilingย so that they are less noticeable.ย
As easy as hanging a picture
Infrared panels are easy to install -ย you can do this yourself.ย All you need is a drill, screw-driver & spirit-level. Mark the position for the holes using the pre supplied template. Drill the holes, plug them & insert screws. You can now hang your panel. The panels are supplied fitted with aย standard 3-pin plug. Easy! If you want to go that extra mile and hide the flex, it is a simple job for a qualified electrician to hard wire the panel into your mains electric circuit.ย
Once installed, there is no regular maintenance to be carried out - except the occasional wipe with a cloth. No servicing, no painting & panelsย don't need bleeding or flushing! There are no moving parts, meaning panels have incredibly high reliability rates. A typical lifespan is 100,000 hours (that's around 25 years).ย
Choose aย Nxt Genย panelย to provide additional efficiency benefits.
3 features to help you cut your usage and bills
Theย integrated thermostatcontrols theย temperature of the roomย by turning the panelย on and off when needed. This ensuresย no heat is wasted.ย
Theย remote controlย can set theย temperature for aย 7 day schedule. Program it to only beย on when you need it. Pair multiple panels to a single remote.
Adaptive startย - tell the panel what temperature you would like by a set time - the panel will do the rest. Cold day -ย turn on earlier.Warm day -ย turn on later.ย Result -ย no wasted heatand the room just how you like it when you enter!
Saving energy, saving money
Nxt Gen technologyย IR panels will detect if you haveย opened a windowย and willย avoid energy waste by turning off automatically.ย
Help your pocket by avoiding waste.ย
